1977 Toyota Land Cruiser

Built for a period of 24 years for most countries but carried through for Brazil until 2001, the 40 series of Land Cruiser has definitely become a staple of four-wheel drive enthusiasts and collectors alike. They were built to compete with the Jeep mainly and were a compact SUV that had a couple different variants such as SUV, pickup, a 4-door wagon and a long wheel-base troop hauler. They also offered a variety of engine options which consisted of inline 6-cylinders, 4-cylinder diesels and one 6-cylinder diesel.The standard gasoline engine used in 1977 was the 4.2liter producing 135 HP with a better than average torque ratio of 210 ft lbs.

This particular FJ40 is absolutely gorgeous with zero rust ever. Originally it was a Southwestern vehicle and was restored a few years ago. It was built with the intention of using it as a bird hunting vehicle and was equipped with short-wave radio and CB radios for communication purposes where cell phones do not work. It also has fantastic stereo that was installed at that time. The roof rack, ladder and winch were added and the seller states that when the vehicle was completed it actually has never been out on a hunt and this is very evident based on the overall condition. The FJ starts perfectly and goes down the road excellently. It does not leak or smoke and has some of the nicest attributes of any of the Cruisers that have come through the doors.
